A power of attorney lets someone act on your behalf – to sell property, manage a bank account, represent a company or handle family matters. To be accepted in another country it usually needs to be bilingual, notarized and legalized in the right order.
We prepare the text in Arabic and English (or any other required language), arrange notarization and complete the attestation or legalization chain for the country where it will be used.
Typical powers of attorney
- Real-estate sale, purchase and management
- Bank account and financial representation
- Company registration and corporate representation
- Litigation and legal representation
- Vehicle, inheritance and family matters
